According to reports, the Commanders have interviewed Tennessee Titans defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson. While the AFC South club struggled once again in 2025, the coach continues to bolster his reputation as an exceptional talent developer who can do more with less.
Several others are also in contention. Still, nobody should be complaining too much if Washington went down this route.
Wilson is a Maryland native. He was on Washington’s practice squad in 2004. He’s cut his teeth with the New York Jets,...

The NFL’s Wild Card Weekend is here! The second game on today’s three-game lineup features the 3rd and 6th seeds from the NFC. The San Francisco 49ers are visiting the Philadelphia Eagles in a matchup of two of the top teams in the conference. The 49ers should be getting Trent Williams back, and they will be playing a team that rested their starters last week. That loss cost them the No. 2 seed, and a potential home game later in the playoffs. The Eagles are big favorites at home.
Matchup: San Francisco 49ers (12-5) at Philadelphia Eagles (11-6)
